Fun in the windy city...

One day left in Chicago... Its been a long break but one full of good times with friends and family. I spent so much time the first week of break just catching up on sleep and reading... its been nice being more active this week. I've been in the city since last Monday, hanging out with my favorite ladies and staying at Lindsay's great apartment off of Lake Shore Drive. Its been a great trip so far. We have enjoyed some great restaurants and bars in the lakeview area; I saw Jersey Boys with Chris while he was here; went to see the zoo lights at the Lincoln Park Zoo with Lindsay; had a fun day in Millennium Park and at the Art Institute with Dan; and went to the burbs to go wedding dress shopping with Laura! lots of fun times in one short week. 

I'm ready to get back to Columbia now though! I feel like there are so many bits and pieces to take care of before classes start on Monday. Doctors appointment, fixing my computer, oil change, getting textbooks, final internship stuff (although I'm mostly done... yay!)... I'm feeling a little stressed about finishing up everything before Monday. And I'm really excited to see some familiar HESA faces... especially the rooms! And of course I'm ready for some warmer weather :) 

One last day in the city tomorrow and then back to Cola on Wednesday. Below are some awesome pics of my trip. Enjoy! 


The beautiful windy city and the bean in Millennium Park!! 

New Year's night in the city with the ladies!

I took Chris to see Jersey Boys in Chicago while he was here for new years!
